sweet sweet eloise arrived- beautiful and healthy- just hours after her due date. an easy labor and delivery- hallelujah! 

i'll post more in-depth about lucy meeting eloise once we receive our photos from our amazing family photographer, but above is one image. it was truly one of the most profound moments of my life. it was as if lucy has always known her sister- she burst into the hospital room saying "eloise!" and armed with kisses [...more like "eh-weez!"] as a 20 month old, i couldn't believe her understanding of the situation. i'll never forget it. 

headed home :)

our beautiful girls

at any given point of any given day, i'm most likely wearing one baby, and holding the other. lucy wants to be held ["up, mommy!"] much more now that she sees her sister up with mom and dad :)

i took the girls to the park solo for the first time yesterday. wide load! you can't miss us...

our days are spent at home in these early weeks. so grateful that we're settled and with more space than when lucy was a newborn! it's definitely being utilized. 

words can't express my gratitude for these gifts- so enjoying this season of my life :)

xoxo
